Add a Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP) profile (backwards compatible with previous release, use profiles
instead).
SYNTAX:
where:
pptp ifadd dest = <string>
[rate = <number{10-10000}>]
[encaps = <{vcmux|nlpid}>]
[ac = <{never|always|keep}>]
dest The WAN destination for this PPTP tunnel. Typically a phonebook entry. REQUIRED
rate A number between 10 and 10000.
Represents the transmit speed in bits/s for the WAN link.
OPTIONAL
encaps The type of WAN encapsulation.
Choose between:
• vcmux
• nlpid - Network Layer Protocol IDentifiers (NLPID).
OPTIONAL
ac The High-level Data Link Control (HDLC) framing option applicable to
PPTP interfaces using this PPTP profile.
Choose between:
• always:
Before relaying the encapsulated PPP frames over the PPPoA link,
make sure that the address and control field (0xFF03) is always in
front of the frames.
• never:
Before relaying the encapsulated PPP frames over the PPPoA link,
make sure the address and control field will never be found in front
of the frames.
• keep:
Do not change the frames arriving via the PPTP tunnel.
The default is never (compliant to RFC2364).
Note It is recommended to keep this setting.
